I've read the TFP posts about black and yellow algae treatment carefully, as I'm in the process of treating my pool for algae.
All of the instructions indicate that "vigorous and frequent" scrubbing of the pool surfaces that have algae is a requisite.
With my pool, because it is an endless pool (and therefore has a bunch of what i'll call "scaffolding" inside the pool, which is used to help generate the pool current and return water to the pump), I cannot get to all of the areas that have algae. I can get to 95% of them .. as I took most of the pool apart and scrubbed it really well and treated it with diluted bleach.
(The pool is currently empty).
Everything I've read says the algae will either (a) not die or (b) will come back if you don't scrub it.
So what do I do if I literally cannot get to 100% of the areas that have algae to scrub them? Am I destined to use an algicide?
